Judd Appatow’s The 40 Year Old Virgin, which hit the cinemas in 2005, is about Andy Stitzer, Steve Carrel, as a single guy, in his 40’s, nerdy, geeky, and works at an electronic store. This hilarious film follows Andy as him and his coworkers/friends try and help him get laid. What I find funny about this film is that it is a group of adults acting like a group of kids. Its a satire based on being a virgin in high school or college where one friend hasn’t done it yet so the rest awkwardly and relentlessly try and help them. Whether there methods or strategies are working or not, ones things for sure. Its embarrassing. Here are some of the best scenes from Judd Appatow’s The 40 Year Old Virgin.

Funny People Movie Review
Judd Apatow’s, Funny People, released in 2009. Stares Adam Sandler. The movie is about his character George, a superstar stand up comic, who finds he has a short time to live. George although famous and successful, lives an isolated life. He doesn’t really have anyone to go to when he hears of this news. On a trip, George meets a hungry, ambitious young kid named Ira Wright, played by Seth Rogan. George first hires him to write for him and as they become better friends, allows him to work his way up the ranks. George eventually ends up befriending Ira and tells him about his worries. Laura, played by Leslie Mann was the one that got away. George encounters her again in the film only to find she is married to an Australian man. Success shut George and Laura’s relationship down, but George now finds her as a good outlet for him to talk to. Whats nice about this movie, is that Adam Sandler doesn’t play the typical role his fans are used to. He is much more serious and depressed in this movie, so if you’re a fan of Adam Sandler you definitely need to check this one out. If you’re interested in the movie, check out this trailer.
